Notice Of Appeal {1}

FORM 1- NOTICE OF APPEAL (NOA). This form is used to formally appeal a final decision from the Board of Veterans' Appeals (BVA) to the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (CAVC). By submitting this form, the appellant (or their representative) notifies the court that they are challenging a BVA decision. The NOA must be received by the Court, or properly addressed and postmarked by the U.S. Postal Service, not later than 120 days after the date on which the Board issued notice of the decision being appealed. The Court may accept an NOA filed after that date as timely in limited circumstances. See Court Rules of Practice and Procedure 4 and 25. There is a $50 filing fee for an appeal. Please wait to pay until you have received your USCAVC case number. To request a waiver of the filing fee, email, fax, or mail the Court a completed Form 4a (Declaration of Financial Hardship – Rule 24). www.FormsWorkflow.com
